I know this group's primary interest is electronics, but there are enough o ther engineers here. Even electrical engineers should have some basic cons tructions and materials backgrounds, to be able to design electronics to in teract with. Anyway, there will be some electronics later on, after the ba sic constructions.
This is a full scale drawing:

But we probably want to build smaller scale, upto 3,000 pounds, to be towed with pickup or minivan. So, we want CnC (Carbon nanotube Composite, not C NC) to reduce weight. CnC powders are around $200 per pound now, hopefully cheaper later on. Question is what should be use as the base: plywood, p lexi-glass, lexan or aluminium.
My choice is CnC coated lexan. What do you think?
